About Us

SEND Inclusion Support is dedicated to supporting children and young people who face barriers to education due to Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) challenges, and Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA). Our work is rooted in compassion, flexibility, and a deep understanding of the individual needs of each learner.

We specialise in providing bespoke, nurturing education outside of the traditional classroom — in settings that meet the child where they are most comfortable: their homes, community libraries, and local learning centres.

Encourage student confidence, independence, and a love for learning.
